Customer Reviews Ryka Devotion X Max Classic Walking Shoes

Great shoe! Awesome sole, providing great cushioning and enough rigidity for plantar fasciitis. In addition, I also have neuropathy. My foot is like that of 33% of the female population, wide toe and narrow heel; however, most shoe manufacturers don't understand this concept. This shoe is shaped for women like me. I also like the fact that the shoe includes leather. I hate the cheap vegan products that don't breathe or give. I'm returning the 9.5. I have balance issues as well and although I'm normally a 9.5, I feel a smaller shoe will help keep my foot snug. I just received the 9 to wear in the house for a few days before making a final decision but I really feel this is going to work for me.

Awesome shoe! Sadly I'm returning it because it does not provide lateral support. I have neuropathy causing balance issues. Other than that, I loved this shoe! It's a really great looking shoe, great quality, and a great sole. I am now convinced I must have a leather shoe. This shoe has a combo of mesh and suede and although it looks terrific, it doesn't provide the lateral support I need.

I had ordered these in a size 8, which is my usual size, and they felt too big. They were sold out of size 7.5, so I went ahead and got a 7.5 in a different style of this brand. Those were too small. Just as I was giving up, I looked again at this style and they had a 7.5 again (maybe a return?)! So I ordered them, and they fit perfectly! So, I guess this particular style, or maybe just this batch of this style run about 0.5 size bigger than the other styles. I love these though!

I just love how these shoes supported my foot and had. A good arch support I walked a lot in these 18,000 steps a day and my feet were supported and comfortable They are a bit bulky but I really like the feel of them I now have 2 pair As I also wear them around the house as it gives me the support I need

I loved this shoe for beautiful style and excellent sole. Unfortunately I have balance issues and as a result I wasn’t able to keep this shoe. The shoe is a combo of soft suede leather and mesh. I need a more firm material to help keep my foot stable. It may have worked if the variance between the back of the sole to the front of the sole wasn’t so great but I’m not certain. I’m 65 and have PF and neuropathy. I feel this is an excellent shoe if you don’t have balance issues.

Ryka's roomy toe-box and narrow heel are just what my feet need. These have a slightly retro look and fit like a glove. Very happy to have found these.

These shoes are so comfortable for work. I think they are the most comfortable work shoes I've ever had. I am a nurse and spend all day on my feet. Definitely recommend!

Love! Arrived just in time for my treadmill workout so I popped them on and my feet went “yayyyyy.” Nice arch support, pretty denim color, good cushioning. Just what you want in a walking shoe.

Fit perfectly (I normally wear a size 9 and I bought a 9 in this shoe). VERY comfortable. Easy to take on and off without having to re-lace, once you get the correct level of tightness for your foot. Great color--goes well with dark items or light items AND hides the dirt. Love this shoe.

Slightly too small for me. I ordered 8.5 down from my usual 9 due to a review. I also ordered the 9 in a different color and kept the 9. Great shoe!

I love these shoes They have great support and I can wear all day doing many things and I have full support on my foot This is my third pair as I love them so much One pair for the house, one for outside walking, one remains in the motorhome for walking trials etc

Extremely cushiony and comfortable! Stylish and doesn’t look like a work out shoe

Ryka has become my go-to for style and comfort. I have one other Ryka style that is dreamy comfortable. I never had to wear wide until this year; it was doubly difficult to find that width + arch support and a comfortable fit. I like to have black, navy, and gray. Every time I looked for a gray Ryka style, they were sold out. I finally snagged these in gray before they were gone. I didn't give them 5 stars because my feet sweat and the arch support could be better. But I love the style, and my feet don't hurt. Keep it up, Ryka; and as always, my package was delivered on time by Zappos.

I ordered these in a size 8, which is my usual size in every shoe ever. I have never worn this particular brand, but they seem to be 0.5 size too big. I didn’t want to wear them around the house too much, since I may return them. So I put them back in the box and ordered another pair from the same brand in a different variety in a 7.5, since they didn’t have this style in that size. I’m hoping that the 7.5 also runs big and that they will work. That being said, these shoes in this gray color are gorgeous, and extremely comfortable! From the reviews I’ve read other sizes are true to size, so it may just be this size that runs big, or maybe they are supposed to have extra room, I’m not sure because I’ve never worn this brand. I ordered the regular devotion x in blue in a 7.5, and I’ll review those on that purchase. I sure hope they aren’t too small, because they don’t have an 8 in that style…

I haven't worn these yet. But overall I am going to keep them. They seem like they are going to be somewhat comfortable. But again I wear custom orthotics.

Shoe is nice, but way too small

Size was fine but one toe box was visibly narrower compared to the other shoe. I returned the shoes

One shoe fit fine and the other has a visibly smaller toe box and was much tighter. Returning the item.

Shoe was the right length for 8.5 but much wider than makes sense for a medium, so I think it's most accurate to say it generally felt larger. It also has a surprisingly squishy sole, similar to skechers, which would not be comfortable for walking long distances.
